Broker's Comments

The Seafarer 18 is a solid, well built and well thought of day sailer. Her seaworthiness and safe handling characteristics have made her popular in West Wales, where strong tide races and steep seas threaten lesser vessels. She is ideal for drying moorings, creeks and beaches and may be towed to more distant cruising grounds behind a family saloon.
Basically a large stable dinghy, she has the benefit of a sitting cuddy cabin for when the family are feeling the cold!
